ABSTRACT
Automatic fire reorganization with smart security system is now a days used worldwide for better safety and security. In the recent year, Vehicles are turned out to be an ingredient over which many people had shown their interest. Vehicles has gained popularity due to the advancement of many technologies of computing and nano technologies. So, we proposed to design something that can make humans life easier and comfortable. This project, which is or endeavor design a fire fighting Vehicle. Comprises of a machine which not only has the basic features of the Vehicle, but also has the ability to extinguish it by command of operator. The need of the hour is make a device which can detect fire, even if it is small and take the necessary action to put it off. Many house hold item catch fire when someone is either sleeping or away and that lead many hazardous conditions in the fire is not putted off in time.
So, be work as an mechanical engineer is to design and built system that can automatically detect fire. This advanced project allows a user to control a fire fighter Vehicle equipped with water tank and gun remotely wirelessly for extinguishing fires. For this purposes the system uses Bluetooth communication for remote operation along with Bluetooth based microcontroller Circuit for operating the Vehicle and water pump. The android based communication system transfer’s user’s commands through Bluetooth which are received by the receiver circuit. The receiver circuit now decodes the data commands sent. It then forwards to the microcontroller. Now the microcontroller processes these instruction and then instructions the motors to run the Vehicle in desired direction. It also operates the solenoid valve to spray water based on user’s commands. This allows the user to operate the Vehicle and put off the fire by standing at a safe distance.
